In related news, a £2 billion study involving some of the worlds most prominent medical professionals over the last five years has published its findings that cyanide may in fact be poisonous. Spokespersons for medical research institutions around the world have ESS expressed their surprise and shock at this conclusion.

I know several people whose children developed autism after vaccinating. I have promised myself that I will NEVER vaccinate any Children that I end up having because I have seen it myself, firsthand that vaccines cause autism. I don't care what the data says, the fact is that it does happen.

What if they then develop measles, or mumps, or rubella and then die? Is having your child die of easily preventable diseases better than them "having autism"?

Measles is essentially harmless. It is good for children to get diseases like measles because it helps them develop natural immunity to disease.

That's what vaccines are, except the kids don't get the feeling of being sick, just the immunity.

Vaccines are are often don't working, are full of dangerous harmful chemicals, and are very serious in side effects, such as autism in the worst cases. No child deserves autism.

measles is, in actual fact, not harmless. vaccines are effectively the same as natural immunity as many of them work by using a dead form of the virus to help the body figure out how to fight it. indeed, they are safer than uncontrolled infection. there is a good chance you already know this though since even moderators point out your bans for trolling to save people the time that would be wasted replying to posts like this but i'm technically obligated to make a serious rebuttal before i point this out.

even if this was true, which let's be clear here, it isn't, things like polio are pretty much objectively worse than autism. and i say that as an autistic person.

every chemical is dangerous and harmful in the right quantity. vaccines having side effects is generally rare, and as you might have guessed, less severe than the effects of, say, polio.

Thank god my brother isn't your son. Sometimes autism is delayed up to two years after birth before any symptoms are noticeable.

Not true, it is apparent that something is causing the massive rise in autism. And in many cases that something is a vaccine.

It resulted in about 96,000 deaths in 2013 down from 545,000 deaths in 1990.

Complications with measles are relatively common, ranging from mild complications such as diarrhea to serious complications such as pneumonia (either direct viral pneumonia or secondary bacterial pneumonia), otitis media, acute brain inflammation (and very rarely SSPE—subacute sclerosing panencephalitis), and corneal ulceration (leading to corneal scarring). Complications are usually more severe in adults who catch the virus. The death rate in the 1920s was around 30% for measles pneumonia.

better understanding of autism leading to increased rates of recognition of and diagnosis of autism.

e: the autism rates were 0 in 1900. this is not because there were no autistic people.
